HISTORY“You must learn day
by day, year by year, to
broaden your horizon.
The more things you
love, the more you are
interested in, the more
you enjoy, the more you
are indignant about—
the more you have left
when anything happens.”
Ethel Barrymore, Americanactress (1879-1959)

The cue-bid to show a good raiseis very popular with duplicateplayers. It frees up the jump-raise to use as a pre-emptive bid,showing four trumps and aboutfive to seven points.West won the opening spadelead and continued with theking of spades, ruffed by South.Declarer drew trumps in tworounds, ending in dummy, andruffed dummy’s remaining spade.This was followed by the kingand ace of diamonds, then a lowdiamond toward the queen-10.South rose with his queen, andhad to go down one when the jackof diamonds didn’t fall and the aceof clubs proved to be off-side.Declarer can succeed byinserting the 10 of diamonds onthe third round of the suit. He cannow discard a club from dummyon the queen of diamonds andsurrender only two clubs to thedefense. Is there any reason forSouth to find this play? A reasonsupported by bridge logic ratherthan a peek at the East-Westhands?Yes! Should the 10 of diamondslose to the jack, West would beend-played! He would be forcedto give South the king of clubs oryield a ruff-sluff. That combinedwith a club discard on the queenof diamonds would give South his10 tricks. The diamond finessewould win even if it lost!
